bradford, west yorks

i have not had time to post since the weekend (been busy looking at lots of minis hehe) and whne i do it doesnt want to work please sort it out!

anyway! on saturday after work me and feeble set off to benrosses house to get my chambers opend up, got there at 12, was interaduced to his mini ( *happy* ) and he got to work on the head, showed me what he was doing all the way. although it dident look like rocket science i am now quite pleased i did not try it on my head as there was a bit to loose should i have gone wrong. and plus it was great to meet steve:)
jimmy got pics so i will let him post them up when he gets time:).
steve also took us for a lesurly sunday drive in the mini too and theres a couple of short clips i will wait for jim to post up aswell.
i really did like his mini a lot its real inspiration to pull my finger out when i dont feel like it becouse i know the fun thats to come*happy* i do realy like the long gearing i know there not for everybody but i like the idea of longer gears. tho s/cs are too noisy for an everyday car i think wich is what mine is going to be so i will keep the helicals. verry impressed with it tho and he is a top guy done a great job (on his car and my head!) and we (me and jimmy) both learnt a lot from him and really ejoyed it. and he was more than fair on the price *happy**happy*

THANKS STEVE! and give us a shout when you want your garage taking down :)

theres porbably too many smilies lol.

Dan - PLEASE SORT THE FORUM OUT IT WONT WORK SO MUCH:(

Ben is well and truelly ENTHUSIASTIC about minis, he came to mine to pic up some bits i could see he wanted to stay and chat (as i would have liked him to stay a bit longer !) but long journey back shortened the mini talk.

Ben.... i got the SC gear set, and the box is away to Austrin engineering to have the center oil pickup done and box built up (Inc new baulk rings etc as per your advice *wink*) i will have to drive down with my head n T3 elbow for a chat !

cheers

Richie

Hi! i didnt see this thread not been online much - and what the hell is up with this site going so slow lately?? It been mentioned in the mags again or something??

Anyway, yeah learnt loads and loads that day.

I have the videos - problem is though they are 30mb each and i cant compress them i dont know how, ive searched all over google, but every bit of software i download is only shareware or a virus/doesnt work!!

I think we should have a BBQ at Benross's and pull the garage down to get a few people over!

by the way, the videos look great on the pc - thos straight cut gears are defening i could hear them for about 2 hours after getting out *happy*
